Button Blowing

Hank's giggle just makes me melt.  And yes, those are Toy Story pajamas.

Daddy Daycare

what parenting looks like when Mark is in charge...

ya... why would hank need a shirt when he has perfectly good overalls?

she's 21 months... practically old enough to babysit

when all else fails, plop 'em in front of the boob tube

lots of sista love from the blonde beast... or is she doing CPR?

The Many Faces of Hank

Big Hank is finally here!  April 16, 2010- 8lbs, 9oz, 21inches.  He's already quite expressive... a total Thrash.

Diaper Days

No joke, the diaper can make a girl do crazy things. Sharing her daddy's warm-blooded nature (they both bead up in a sweat when it hits 75), Hazel is a big fan of the diaper-only fashion... with boots of course.


And here is the diaper-only personality in action:

Glamour Shots by Deb

Just kidding about the Deb part. Our friend Miah Klein is a pro photog (check him out: http://studio7weddingphotography.blogspot.com/) and he took some killer shots of the Thrash fam to document Hazel's first birthday.

Celebrating ONE!

You could say the first cupcake was a hit. The kid shoved it down so fast that I almost missed the picture. You would have thought we hadn't fed her for the week prior. Hazel's got mama's sweet tooth.


We had a little bash with both sets of grandparents and Hazy was completely spoiled by her grandmas (striped theme of course).
We're still working on the smile for the camera thing, but she's got no shame with showin' off the belly for the camera. Woohoo ONE YEAR OLD!

The Unicorn and the Bumble Bee

Melts my heart every time...
Waking up Daddy in the morning- one of Hazel's favorite family traditions:Does it get any better than this?
--------------------------------


Ok, so we're going to go ahead and call Sept. 25th a bust in the life of Hazel Rose Thrash. Here's bebe- modeling a sneak peek at Halloween fashion (I couldn't stop laughing and even though it was about 95 degrees in our house, I kept the poor thing in that fuzzy fleece outfit because I was so entertained.)
Well the Queen Bee of Capo Beach must have heard that someone was rivaling her in cuteness and sent her cronies out to take care of business. We were on the way home from a tailgate party and Hazy belts out screaming in the far back of Larry the Van. Low and behold, She got stung by a bee right on the chest. Oh yeah, and that was AFTER sweet stuff acquired that huge unicorn knot/bruise/scrape on her forehead while taking a digger onto cement this morning while I was with my Mama friends. The girl is tough.

A rough day in this life of this little one! But don't worry, the bulldozer hasn't been fazed a bit. In fact, she came home and proved that she wasn't gonna let a couple of sissy little injuries hold her down. Here are the first steps we've been able to capture on film!
